the children and grandchildren of yalta and ribbentrop-molotov understand vance's performance in munich and the riyadh noises very, very well.

I literally reported this Wednesday.

The attacks on DEI are a pretext for a much more radical agenda of reversing the gains of the civil rights movement, an objective the Trump administration is pursuing with zeal. A Great Resegregation. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

This brief exchange perfectly sums up the current state of the post-truth online information space.

what would it take for yanks to stop being imperialists first, and fascists, centrists or leftists second?

🤔 Trump’s team asked Ukraine to withdraw a UN resolution condemning Putin for waging war. Zelensky refused, and the request reportedly shocked Ukraine, – Washington Post, citing European diplomats. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.

Everyone in Central Europe right now

frankly, if you're a yank coming at me for supporting the existence of the polish (or ukrainian, or taiwanian) state, while you still have your united states passport, your social security number and are still a united states citizen, do kindly fuck yourself. i'm tired of your shit.

I somehow /still/ see people who are in complete denial about what this means and honestly I do have to ask when they plan to cop on.

wow, i have my own fan club now; it's a sign i post too much: bsky.app/profile/did:...

people need to realize that we are now entering a reality where the U.S. is still a massive global presence except it’s *just* unadulterated evil

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

Oh dear, hope no one disrupts this

at least duda (our polish pres) is on his way out in may, and with a bit of luck we get someone less stupid next time. (note: not necessarily less venal, or less racist. just not as genuinely stupid as duda is.)

polish ex-ruling party decided that brownnosing trump will help them when trump sells us to the russians. as usual, they're badly mistaken.

i'm a grandchild of four holocaust survivors. all four of my grandparents were in the camps and lost their families and communities to the gas chambers. how am i not supposed to take this as a direct threat to my life and those of my family and community? it's us or them, folks.

you will never see a centrist calling for unity accommodate the left. in their actual demands, you'd almost think this sort of campaign was only ever a push to accommodate the far right.

The answer to the question "should you do violence against oppressors?" is absolutely between you and your conscience. However, the answer to the question "should you talk/post about doing violence against oppressors?" is ALWAYS EMPHATICALLY NO. This is DOUBLY true if you're serious about it.

This is exactly how Hitler talked. It's not even a comparison or analogy, as people claim. It's a direct connection in ideology as well as a similar approach to governance and relationship to democracy. This needs to be how we talk about it. They are the ideological descendants of Hitler.

that you have fucking yanks who still litigate that bullshit and ignore that russia is pounding rockets and drones on strictly civilian targets since the beginning of the invasion is a fucking disgrace. and: get your fucking house in order first before you start throwing shit at other people.

People genuinely, urgently need to inform themselves about the concept of necrosecurity. It drives every part of the right wing response to COVID and to disease and disability itself. Rebekah is right - they WANT mass death.

look at this fucking clown clowning.

there's a type of an american, which prefer to call a “yank”, whose main quality seems to be an aggressive ignorance of all things non-american; some are drilling the bottom from the left, more of them are drilling the bottom from the right. this is one of them more lefty ones.

Ok class! This next exhibit is the Orbule of Evil. The more it’s handled the more evil it does to the world. It’s an ancient artifact that constant emits a sticky, oily puss. Pass it around the class to feel how disgusting it is! ^ y’all with New York Times articles

this guy has centrist'ed to the point where he literally doesn't understand stances of the sides he's naming on the issues he's naming this is gibberish slop
